Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a full location catering unit, a hog roast is simpler and suits smaller shoots and one-off days. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Why Coombe hosts choose us
- All the equipment comes with us
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Carved to order by a chef
Read our prices page and what a hog roast costs.
Planning for dietary needs
Some crew won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Share the allergen list with the crew
- Stuffing generally contains gluten
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
We clear our spot after lunch.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
How the day works
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. Your crew will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and winter daylight in Coombe ends around 3:55pm.
- Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We clear our spot.
Getting ready for the day
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
Getting a price
When you are weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. We spell it out in ours. To get yours, send us your details through our quote form.

A closer look at the menu
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
What the cooking area needs
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- Clearance from trucks, kit and trees
- Flat ground at the unit base
- A contact in production
As a London location, Coombe is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
